    摘要: A memory cell of a memory array stores two bits. A memory array sense amplifier provides two bits in a verify operation. Two bits in a page buffer stores a write target value for the corresponding memory cell. Each bit in a mask buffer stores a value defining processing to be effected on the corresponding memory cell. A write driver applies a write pulse when the bit in the mask buffer corresponding to the selected memory cell is “0”. A verify circuit compares the two bits provided from the memory array sense amplifier with the corresponding two bits in the page buffer, and changes the corresponding bit in the mask buffer from “0” to “1” when the result of the comparison represents matching.

    摘要: When a data write sequence is started, initially, write data is latched in a data latch circuit corresponding to one memory mat. Then, a program pulse is applied to the memory mat, and data read from a memory cell, which is a data write target bit in the memory mat, is performed. Thereafter, verify determination of the memory mat is performed. After a verify operation for the memory mat is completed, a program pulse is applied to another memory mat, and a verify operation for another memory mat is performed.

    摘要: A multi-level semiconductor memory device for storing multi-level data having three or more values is implemented by utilizing a nonvolatile memory device for storing 2-valued data. Identification of successive 16-bit data externally applied is performed with external address bit AA [2], and a storage block is selected with external address bit AA [23]. Upper word data LW and lower word data UW are compressed into byte data of 8 bits, respectively, and stored in a memory cell array.

    摘要: Operational stability of the nonvolatile memory in plural power supply voltage modes set up in advance corresponding to the power supply voltage level is realized. A nonvolatile memory is configured with a memory array, a charge pump, a distributor for selecting an output voltage of the charge pump, and a sequencer for controlling operation of the charge pump and the distributor. The nonvolatile memory is also provided with an analyzer which notifies the sequencer of a power supply voltage mode selectively specified among plural power supply voltage modes set up in advance corresponding to power supply voltage levels, and which detects mismatch between the power supply voltage mode notified to the sequencer and an actually supplied power supply voltage and limits the operation of the charge pump and the distributor with the use of the sequencer, based on the detection result. Accordingly, operational stability of the nonvolatile memory is realized.
